PVD’s...are we done?

[Skull_Leader]

Our rider says seasonals are done on December 31st, no more pvd's for us.

The bad seasonals were done 12/24. Only the best of us got to keep rolling through 1/15

 

[RuthlessSupSlayer]

So you're saying that because of us, you got less than 40 hours a week? No? then STFU.

No I didn't get the normal OT I am accustomed to. I work to make money and PVDs are in my way. If you want to drive one of these trucks all day and you're hired as a seasonal to drive a PC then fine if you're here after the contractual time frame then and only then will I give a ish about you

Hey guys, I know most of you hate our guts as pvds but I’m trying to figure out if I can expect to be called back in to work before the seasonal contract ends January 15th. Had multiple 50 hour+ weeks since starting in December and HR told me the job runs until the middle of January. I wasn’t told that I was done but my someone at my center said they disposed of all the seasonal driver helpers when i went in on Friday. Are we on call now or should I call my boss in the coal mine and tell him I’ll be coming back in next week?

Yes. Gone

 

[Rack em]

Well you are in the middle of nowhere...

Wouldn't trade it for a thing!

 

[Skull_Leader]

All of the drivers I've picked up packages from were damn happy to see me. We still have guys rolling around in rental trucks with 300 stops bouncing around in the back.

 

[zubenelgenubi]

I've seen in some supplmentals a guarantee for seasonals.

What a waste of bargaining position.

Only two things out your way

Steers and queers. Which one are you?

 

[RuthlessSupSlayer]

UPS is a company. They are expected to deliver on promises to their customers. If their current workforce in unable to meet those goals, then they have to bring in help. During peak season, you COULD NOT fulfill those promises, so we were called in. Deal With it.

I am have to deal with you being uniformed and as naive as a 5 year drinking kool aid with Cosby. Just go back to picketing for your $15 minimum wage.

That's Texas you

Really and how long have these drivers been driving that were rolling around with 300 stops in a rental??

What a waste of bargaining position.

Yeah can't disagree with that but... it also helps out drivers when it comes to helpers. No more "oh you can only use your helper 1.99 hours."

So the seasonals can use the grievance procedure?

 

[542thruNthru]

So the seasonals can use the grievance procedure?

I guess so. I just know I've seen it in a couple supplmentals. I know in the NorCal sup they have a 3 1/2 guarantee for helpers.

would be amazing if the driver could file....double and half for every hour under 8(minimum of 2 hours)

What driver ever uses their helper for the time allowed by the company anyway? Now that you mention it, I think my rider might have a 3 hour guarantee for helpers, but drivers without seniority don't get a guarantee.

And that's BS

I Did then brought back 50 pieces maxed at 14....never saw anything about keeping my helper for X hours only the rest of last season.

PVD drivers...because I despise this PVD concept

So because it hurts your vagina you act like a little punk bitch towards some person just trying to eek out a living. The PVD works here because the company hired them. Are they supposed to turn down a job because some little chump doesn't like them taking their work?

I'm saying concept it self is terrible to me because it takes away from people who want the work like myself.

Thank your beloved union that they are here. Vote the people out who caused this instead of with the guys trying to make whatever brief income they can.

A helper is one thing but a PVD comes off as unprofessional and a bad look.

And a "professional" UPS driver acting like a bitch blocking another employee's car while you punch out is just as unprofessional.

I think starting a scrap at the facility is probably a bad look
